Does anyone know of any activities or games the students can do using computers?  I have classes of about 35 students and 6 computers in my classroom.  I teach at a high school and most of my students are very low level.  We have a fancy new English classroom and my co teacher wants me to use the computers.  I thought about having them work in groups, giving them questions and making them search for the answers.  But I'm worried that their level is so low that even with a simple question the search results will just overwhelm them with too much information in English.

Does any one have any suggestions or ideas for using computers with low level classes?

Seems a dangerous idea.... kids and computers. It's easy for them to get distracted.

In bold might not be a problem. They will all use naver and daum instead of google.

I'm in a similar situation with one of my schools. My high school kids are very very low and only half of my kids will probably graduate. Moreover, some of my students do not know their ABCs so I developed an individualized project where the students create a PPT based on their project. For instance, some of my students love animals wearing hats and jumping off stuff-just pure nonsense. I just make them describe the pictures. Another group is doing a "how-to" on making kimchi. While the higher level students are doing that, I have the lower kids make PPTs on the alphabet and maybe a word for each letter. Then they will present to the class. Typically my kids don't care about anything but they are really motivated since I set up a reward system for project rubric...certain scores get certain rewards. After each day I have them email their PPT project and then develop tasks that they need to get done before the deadline... They usually use Korean websites to navigate the internet and use babylon-Korean to English translator to upload things into their PPT (they usually get translated wrong but are close). I also emphasize enthusiasm and effort…

Hope this helps

For low level students Quizlet (http://quizlet.com/) is pretty awesome. You can even have them make sets for each other to use on there.

You could also have them try sites like Livemocha or English Central.
